Get ready to witness the first full Moon of 2025—January’s enchanting Wolf Moon—lighting up the night sky on Monday, January 13. Reaching peak illumination just after sunset and by midnight, it will shine brightly overhead, casting its magical glow across the valley and offering a stunning view over the Lizard Range.

Known as the Wolf Moon, this January full Moon draws its name from the howls of wolves heard during the cold, barren months of winter—a symbol of resilience and survival that resonates with Fernie’s mountain spirit.

Whether you’re night skiing at the Fernie Nordic Centre, snowshoeing, fat biking, or simply stargazing, the Wolf Moon promises to cast Fernie’s winter wonderland in a magical light.

The Fernie Nordic Centre hut will be open & warm ~ perfect for a night ski with a gorgeous glow on all the mountains & trees.
